Patties on yogurt - general principles
For the preparation of dough on yogurt for patties use several basic components:
• Flour. It is better to purchase a premium product, if using flour of the second or third grade, it is recommended to mix it with a small amount of potato starch.
• Sour milk. It can be both fresh and expired. It is important that the product does not smell of oxidation or fermentation. The product before the batch is taken out of the refrigerator in advance so that it warms to room temperature.
• Soda or yeast.
• Salt, sugar. Depending on the type of filling, both ingredients can be added a little more or less.
• Vegetable oil. It is necessary so that the dough does not stick during the rolling and forming.
The dough is thoroughly kneaded, allowed to “rest” or rise, after they are rolled out with a flat cake and they form pies.
Filling. There is room for imagination of any culinary specialist. You can fill the patties with absolutely any filling: jam and jams, eggs and mushrooms, cheese, vegetables, meat products, etc.
